You know what I loathe? I hate it when people say, "Thompson was one of the most relevant writers of the twentieth century...", because he was really of the 19th century:
FEAR & LOATHING: 1972 .
Now is the twentieth century: 2005 .
Why must we always subtract that extra century? It overstresses the brain remembering the myriad things one must in order to survive! Why not simplify life? Just refer to the years from 0000-to-0099 as the "Zeroth Century".
That's all it would take to solve it.

So the year 42 was in the ZERO century? Doesn't work that way. :)
Whether I like it or not, I'm in my fourth decade. Wow.....

They didn't have computer weenies or zero back then (well some places did, but I don't think the Holy Roman Empire did). Have to look it up again.

You're in your 40's, or you were born in the 60's?
